Hello... First day working again. bliss
Yes I am taking it slow and easy with the hand. But I got some wood bent and also wired the new machines that came a few days ago from England "axminster" for 230V . all works great. What a difference to use a 22-44 JET instead of the handmade one !! also got a nice cast iron Jointer and a osc-spindle sander. This all helpt my hand a great deal. what a difference to use good gear. !! Also a big + for the guys I think are abit expensive --- stewmac. who now are not as, I tested my bending Iron I got from them, and it prooved to be broken, I called them and they are for no charge sending me a new one !! Now thats great service !!.

Hope all of you all are doing good and I guess you will all from now on hear a more joyfull Lars. haha.

All the best all your friend Lars.

I know it can be a long road back from an injury. Sounds like you're doing it right.
Your hand will let you know when you overdo it.
Now... You just have to keep your fingers out of all that new machinery!
Good to hear you're back at it.

Lars, how do you find the Axminster equipment (what did you buy also). I am looking at getting a few things myself from there.

I thought I saw the unemployment rate dip recently... welcome back to the working class... unkasammy needs the tax revenue. You do pay taxes, right? bliss
